Thisisdudewhoru's 340i BSM w/BBS RS-GT Goodness
The goods are on post 2 for those who can't wait lol
Figured I'd go ahead and start one of these. FOLLOW ME ON INSTA@ king.g0ng I WILL UPDATE THREAD WITH PICTURES ALL THROUGHOUT. THE ONLY POST I WILL EDIT IS THE SECOND POST WHICH IS MODS. 2016 BSM 340i M Sport and Track pack. Here's all the factory options. My philosophy when modding a car is making it how it should have been or could have been from the factory which is what I like to refer to as OEM+. Raise the power but nothing extreme, maintain comfort and amenities but be able to run a track day. Subtle and clean exterior modifications. 2/2/17 Drove 5 hours to pick her up. Don't have many outside pictures as it was raining and has been nasty. She also has some light swirls. Nothing a quick pass of the PC can't take care of and a nice fresh coat of wax when it warms up. Trying to get out of Atlanta Stopped at hooters on way home Safely home in the garage Better pics will come

Think youll be more than happy with the hr sport springs unless you financed the car, get some coilovers instead id go with the bilstein route.

Yea I bought the car. I currently enjoy the edc. I'm leaning towards the dinan springs and bumps. And I'll either get Bilstein damptronic shocks or if I decide to throw it down big I'll get the B16? Coilovers that are compatible with damptronic that they're working on

Nice mod list!
Charge pipe needs to be added to this list in my opinion

What are your thoughts on voiding the warranty with the performance mods? I'm ready for some bolt on mods (1st would be downpipe) but I really don't have the appetite to deal with a warranty issue if a problem were to arise. I know dealers can be a real pain in the ass about this topic.
As for suspension, I have H&R Sport on my F30 I feel like the ride is as comfortable as stock. |

That said I'm gonna push the car pretty hard over the next few months before I tune it to maybe expose any weak spots in my particular vehicle I'm also fairly mechanically inclined and have had a significant hand in building over 10 engines in my short life this far. However we have race gas at the pump at many of our stations around here. Usually before I drag or hpde I at least fill my cars half tank for a little more insurance from detonation due to high heat. Which I'll have meth on this car so it shouldn't be too much of an issue If you are just doing Bolton's without a tune then I'd just swap the parts off before going to dealer. I do most maintenance myself and when I need anything else I go to a good Indy shop in the area. Last edited by Thisisdudewhoru; 02-06-2017 at 06:33 PM.. |

It is not yet but with the kind of power you will be pushing i would not rule out a charge pipe upgrade

May have made a deal and paid for wheels today. Deal I couldn't pass up...
2 Piece Forged 19x8.5 et35 19x9.5 et40 Hopefully the spoke design clears the M sport calipers. I haven't seen many wheels that don't provided they are correct fitment, which these are. |

Got my grills today. Can confirm that a swift pull from outside towards the headlights will get the old grills out easily. I did break 1 tab of like 10 on each of the factory grills tho.
